Daphna Heller (Ph.D. Rutgers University, 2005) is Associate Professor of Linguistics. Her research examines issues in semantics and pragmatics from the perspective of cognitive science; specifically, how language is produced and interpreted in real time, within the rich context of a conversation. She directs the Toronto Language Processing Lab (TLPL), which conducts interactive conversational studies, some using eye-tracking. Dr. Heller has collaborated with linguists, psychologists and computer scientists, and her work has been published in venues across a broad range of fields, including Linguistics and Philosophy, Journal of Semantics, Cognition and Cognitive Science.
